If the adjective is referring to a
language, it will always be the masculine form. If the adjective is referring
to a woman instead of a man, then the adjectives ending in -o change to
end in -a. The adjectives ending in -e do not change for gender. Also,
the adjective americano usually refers to someone living anywhere
in the American continent, but many people do use it to mean a person
from the United States, instead of statunitense.

When talking about your country of origin, it is more common
in Italian to use the adjective of nationality. For example, instead
of saying She is from Denmark, you would say She is Danish.
